. 3m K Kw4 @Inra p W5 ent with the series lof blades, the outer sur# eface thereof will be Hush with the vcorrespending surface of the disk,so that at such time, if the 'shaft 4 be in rotation as will hereinafterappear, the disk with lts blades will rotate idly in the body of liquidwithoutf accomplishing any function or without transferring power. Y

As a matter of prqperly supporting the casing section 5,- the isk 2 may,as illus trated, have on its outer face the lateral cen-v tral hub14,adapted to tit a bearing opening in the hub l5 of said sect1on5. Insaid 'hub 15 'there is shown disposed the vstuiling box 16 and throughthe` stuffing 'box the blade-actuating member 17 projects, said,blade-actuating member consisting in the s inwardl present case of aylongitudinall -reciprocae tive rod, the shaft 4 having a on'gitudinal'`bore 18 to receive said rod, which aswill hereinafter appear, has an'operative connection with the several blades 1 0. Surround-x ing theshaft 4 and sldable thereon is a sleeve 19 which is moved back andiforthin the direction of said shaft'by the rod 17 shown connected with saidsleeve b the pin.

their respective pockets 11 as already mdi' cated. The rod 17 isrepresented as equipped at its outer end with a collar 23 b which saidrod can be operated, and this co lar may be as shown peripherallygrooved to receive the branches. of an operating fork which is notshown.

`The section 6 is provided with vanes each denotedby-24 and which extendacross the inner surface of the rim or outer wall of saidsection andalso along the web thereof, and these vanes prevent circulation bodil asit may be termed, of the liquid containe inthe casing 3, by virtue ofwhich the said liquid canbe arrested in its movement suiiciently toinsure the re uisite resistance to the mof tion of the bla es 10, thegreater vsuch resistance, the greater the speed, the speed being reducedas the blades 10., are swung 1n and the transferring effect beingeliminated altogether when the blades are' ocketed in the apertures 11.The side .e ges of the blades 10 travel opposite to the Shanks or bodiesof the vanes 24 whilethe outer edges of the blades are located oppositethe trans` verse portions of said vanes, vsuch transverse portions beingcut away on curved'lines to provide for the proper-action of the blades.Between the vanes 24 are arranged shorter vanes 25 which also tend tocheck the How of the liquid thereby increasing the eliiciency of theapparatus.

.-Prefembl the shanksor bodies of the vanes are` ongitudinally curved soas to avoid shock. in the transmission of powerh What we claim is:

- 7 1'. AIna liquid transmission apparatus,V a

casi for containing liquid, a member 1nclose by the casing, one of theparts being rotative with respect tothe other, aseries of 'angularlyadjustable blades supported by one of the members, and a series ofcoperatg vanes carried by the other member and surrounding the blades.

2. In a liquid transmission apparatus, a casing for containing liquid, amemberin said casing, one of said parts being rotative with respecttothe other, a series of blades supported by one of saidfparts, vanescooperatingwith said blades, carried by the other part, and means foradjustin the an- 'gular'relation of the blades, the b ade-carrymgralthaving spective blades.`

` 3.11.1 a liquid transmission apparatus, a casing for-containin liquid,a disk mounted in. the casing, a series of angularly adjustable bladessupported by one side of the d is kanda'ser1es of vanes extending acrossthe casing 'and surrounding the blades.

4.- In a liquid transmission ap aratus, a casing lli) mounted pockets toreceive the refor containing liquid, a dis in said casing, one of saidparts" being rotative with respect to thel other, said disk having alseries of pockets, blades. ivotally supported in said ockets, the bla esbein an larly adjustab e with respect tothe di an bei also capable ofbeing seated iu said poc ets, and vanes coperative with said blades,carried by the casing.

5. In a liquid transmissionap aratus, a casing for containing liquid, adisk mounted in the casing, a serles of angularly adjustable bladesmounted on one side of the disk,

and a series of vanes supported by the casing and surrounding theblades. l,

6. In a-liquid transmission apparatus, a

rotative with respect to the other, a series A'of angularly adjustableblades supported by one of said members, a series of coperatin vanescarried by the other member, an

,means acting against the vanes between their points of support' andouter edges for angularly adjusting the same.

7. In a liquid transmission apparatus, a casing for containing liquid, adisk mounted the casing, a shaft to which one of said members isconnected for rotation, the other member being 'rotative about theshaft, a series of blades pivotally supported by one of said members forangular adjustment, cooperating vanes supported by the other:casing'lfor containing a liquid a member in 'closed by the casing, oneof the parts being device sustained bythe shafts, and connectionsbetween said actuating'device and the blades, being united to therespective blades between their pivots and outer edges.

8. In a liquid transmission apparatus, a casing for containing liquid, adisk in said casing, a plurality of angularly adjustable bladessupportedby vsaid disk, vanes in the casing extending across and along one sidethereof, and a second series of vanes extending across the space`between the other vanes.
